Ram 3500 Cranks its Cummins up to 930 lb-ft

For model-year 2018, the Ram 3500 will get a few upgrades to its Cummins diesel engine and fifth-wheel hitch design, improving both towing and torque figures.

Ram has unveiled the 2018 Ram 3500 Heavy Duty pickup, which is powered by a Cummins 6.7L diesel, with an insane 930 lb-ft. of torque - the highest rating ever for a pickup. As a result, the engine now makes 30 lb-ft more torque than it did before. The forthcoming 2018 Ram 3500 HD cranks out 930 lb-ft. of torque, with a maximum fifth-wheel towing capacity of 30,000 lbs. when properly equipped.

According to Jim Morrison, Head of Ram Brand FCA North America, the torque increase was necessary to better meet the demands of today's heavy duty truck buyer. Ram's new hitch will allow customers to move away from Class 4 and 5 trucks to haul trailers that would have otherwise been limited to 24,000 lbs.

If you've ever found yourself behind the wheel of a Ford F-350, unable to do your job because your truck's 925 lb-ft of torque is somehow insufficient, we have great news. The hitch will be available as an upfit package for the 3500 or as a stand-alone part for $1,395. Maximum gooseneck and conventional hitch trailer weight ratings for 2018 are 31,210 and 20,000 pounds, respectively, the company said in a news release. Whether focusing on a family that uses a Ram 1500 day-in and day-out, a hard-working Ram 3500 Heavy Duty owner or a business that depends on its Ram ProMaster commercial van every day for deliveries, Ram has the truck market covered. However, Ford's 5th wheel hitch assembly has a capacity of 27,500lbs, giving the factory-equipped Ram 3500 the lead in factory-equipped 5th wheel towing capacity while also leading in engine torque.

Sales of the Ram brand trucks have climbed in 2017.
